Email received this morning: "Price Alert! San Diego from $93* a night!"

This portends to be a running snark.

Folks, even when I'm visiting San Jose? I've never paid more than $50 a night. *thinks hard* No, not even when I wasn't doing Priceline.

They think $93 a night is a bargain for Buzzard's Bay. Buzzard's. BAY.

San Diego, if I were to describe it as a person?

That skanky little bleached-blonde on diet pills and cheap booze with the ugly boyfriend in the military (Camp Pendleton is just up the coast, and there's a HUGE Navy base in San Diego itself) that drives the biggest, narstiest SUV he could buy for her (she doesn't work), has a shopping addiction that just won't quit and makes everyone else pay for lunch when she goes out to dine.

And thinks everyone has to admire how absolutely GORGEOUS she is. Such assets! Such glamor.

...puuuuleeeeze.

She's a trumped-up $5 whore. And I really resent having to pay more just to spend a night in her neighborhood.

(Buying a home? Not so bad. But you have so much company, you'd think you were in Orange County in the 60's again.)

the only time i've spent more than $50 a night for San Diego was because I was at a convention, and was staying in the hotel.

Hey. Some of us have to live here, you know. ;op

Yeah, San Diego's a Tart, which is why I don't understand why there's a free way back up from Los Angeles every weekend. (Roll eyes).

*sigh*

And that damn cheap whore then decided she didn't WANT a husband in the military, and instead of dumping him and starting over, she blackmailed him into quitting his Navy Seal career so she wouldn't have to follow the drum, and now he's... what, a personal trainer?

Yes, there's a personal issue there. Grr.

Please don't hold back. Tell us how you really feel. :-)

I'll take it under advisement, though. We have yet to visit the Golden State, but we have friends in San Diego.

Yeah, Sandy Eggo has a lot in common with Long Beach before the Navy pulled out. Now LB isn't SUCH a bad place to live. Even has a few nice areas.

*snort*

Heh. I have my own private reasons for snarking at this...

I loved San Diego, it was a beautiful place, 25 years ago. By the way, not all military dependant wives are tramps. Most of actually stay with our husbands.

you forgot....

the ugly boyfriend in the military

that ugly boyfriend sometimes goes out with other guys or does gay porn for money.

There are an awful lot of former Washingtonians in San Diego. Me, I left California for good reason (I couldn't afford to buy a house in the Bay Area), and unless I can move to the redwood country, I won't be back except for visits.

So what are you guys doing in early-mid May? I'll need to confirm the exact dates with my Mom, but the entire family is assembling in Canoga Park for Aunt Deedee's 100th birthday, and then driving to Yosemite to stay for a week. We're driving down from Paradux Hill (we do not want to fly and rent a car), and will therefore have some leisure to pay you a visit if it all works out for that.
